We were a table a of 7 celebrating a birthday. It was not busy at all. I would say only about 20%…read moreof the restaurant was filled with customers.. so not busy. When we arrived, we dropped off a cake and candle at the front counter and told them it was a surprise birthday cake and asked if they would be able to set up and bring it out once we finish our dinner. They said "yes". We do this all the time with other restaurants and have never had any issues. Normally, cake is brought out and candle that we provide is lit. Some restaurants even go as far as singing happy birthday. We finished our food and sat there for a while waiting for the server, Dolly, who was nowhere to be found. So we started stacking our plates to the side to get ready for the cake. When we finally saw her, we whispered to her that we were ready for the surprise cake. She went back into the kitchen and came out with the cake still in the box and candles still in the package and says out loud "here's your birthday cake" in front of the whole party. We asked her if they had a lighter and lit the candles ourselves. We sang Happy Birthday and enjoyed our cake next to our dirty dishes from our dinner that still have not been collected. A previous time eating here, my friend ordered takeout for her husband after we dined in. My friend lives in a different city. By the time she got home, she realized that 1 of 2 of what she ordered was missing. She called and told her she wasn't going to drive back but they were kind enough to comp her next meal. They said they can come back when she's back in town again to pick up a voucher. When she went to pick up the voucher, 2 other people were there picking up vouchers for missing orders too. Apparently, it's a common thing that happens. The food itself is decent and price is reasonable for what you're getting. However, the service is horrible from my handful of experiences here.

My youngest wanted to eat at this fantastic restaurant for her bday and since my brother and her…read moreshare bdays days apart we decided to have a little family lunch. We had a variety of rolls and they were all spectacular. I wanted to try out an order of their sushi nachos so we could all share it as an appetizer, and that was epic. Every one loved the dish. It reminded me of good fish ceviche but with a fantastic Asian twist. Definitely worth trying out. Hopefully next time we return they still have it on their menu. The fried calamari was delicious and so was the tempura. Everything was freshly made. The peanut chicken was nice and crispy and the peanut sauce was savory and sweet at the same time. The chicken curry was also very tasty. I highly recommend this restaurant if you want good quality sushi along with other tasty dishes.

Service was a bit slow with one girl running the whole restaurant, getting orders and serving. Food was good. Baked mussels is yummy but it's not a whole mussel, it's more like imitation crab mixed with minced mussels. The ratio is less on the mussel portion. Th rolls are decent. I don't eat raw but my hubby does and states it's really good quality fish! So give it a try if you like quality fish!

The owners wife Jeanette answered and talked to her husband (Francisco) the owner. They offered a ANY appetizer comped on the next order. I requested it to be a sushi dish instead but she specified that since they were offering any appetizer of our choosing it was fair. I agreed and gave them my info. A month later we placed a to go order and mentioned the appetizer and she confirmed that was correct. I go to pick it up and the owner comes out and says he will not honor that because the price of the appetizer was too high and pick something else. #1. That wasnt what they offered and we agreed to. #2. If you're not going to honor it why not call me and let me know so I don't drive there and waste my time again? He has my number. Edit: regarding the response below. If the intentions were to offer items up to a certain price then that should've been made clear. The problem was they clearly specified ANY APPETIZER of your choosing numerous times. And obviously they have a responsibility to address this when I placed the order/after instead of waiting for me to drive there.

Osaka literally never misses…read more My friends and I ordered literally SO much food from Osaka for pickup and every single item was delicious. We got the Crab Puffs, 49er Roll, a few Ichi Ban Maki Rolls, a few Crunchy Munchy Rolls, a Lion King Roll, a Philadelphia Roll, Miso Soup, and some more but you get the point. The food was ready quite promptly for pickup despite the extremely large order and it being a packed Saturday afternoon. Everything was perfect. The food that was hot stayed hot, the chilled dishes stayed cold. Every single thing tasted great. I was especially impressed with the Crab Puffs. They were completely stuffed with the filling (which I definitely can't say the same about from other restaurants)! They provided a ton of chop sticks and soy sauce packets which is much appreciated. This is my favorite casual sushi place in the valley!

The place was packed. Interesting, when I arrived, the girl at the front told me "it's going to be a 20 minute wait" but there was a table, clean and no one sitting on it, so I told her "there's a table right there." slightly weird interaction but it's fine. My server was amazing. Super attentive and did an amazing job refilling my water. I got the dinner plate of the grilled salmon and tempura veggies. All tasted good, and for the price, I would say it's priced right. One odd thing was I given a to-go cup for my drink when everyone had glass drinks. Maybe they had ran out of glass drinks? Other than that, great experience lol

Walking in, could use some major updates. Nobody asked if we wanted a drink or check over the menu while we waited to be seated in our party room (waited in bar area an hr).

The hibachi chef was nice, he did a great job, no complaints there, tipped well. We were here for 4 hours (only 45 min of that eating).

Kimoto has become our go to Japanese restaurant ever since my previous fav Japanese place owners…read morehad retired. We came around 8:44 pm on a Friday night and they still accepted us to dine in but had to sit at the sushi bar which was fine. I had the chicken teriyaki dinner plate and upgraded to the vegetable tempura at an extra charge with steam rice (though you can get fried rice. My wife got the chicken katsu dinner and vegetable tempura also. Dinner plate comes with salad and miso dressing- which is a bit like thousand island in color and taste. As well as miso soup. Reason this is my go to Japanese restaurant is I like how their chicken teriyaki is cooked. It's basically char grilled , dark meat which gives it the best flavor. And the teriyaki sauce is a bit thicker and stays on the meat compared to another Japanese place I've reviewed that I didn't like their watery sauce. Service was great. They didn't rush us to finish our food and our waiter informed us about the kitchen closing in 10 mins and asked if we wanted anything else. So that was nice. Overall, definitely recommend this place if you like to order chicken teriyaki. My wife's katsu looked good and she enjoyed what she ordered.

Choose your broth, serve, served in mini crockpot heated on table top burners, then create your own dipping sauces at the sauce bar. Meat Proteins come by "Bullet train" and noodles, veggies, seafood come by on a conveyor belt. Tip: designate someone to grab items from the conveyor if you're seated in a long booth. Fresh ingredients, customizable flavors, and unique set up and make this a great choice for a family outing. Pros: plenty of food options and variety; interactive, and fun dining experience. Cons: hard to get in and out of booth if you need more sauce; sauce station access can be inconvenient; bowls stack up quickly, making the table cluttered.
